Steve Bannon taunted Elon Musk on Tuesday, telling Politico that the president-elect’s billionaire right-hand-man doesn’t have all that much power.
Bannon says Musk doesn’t “have the ability to actually make decisions and inform those decisions and drive those decisions.”
He added: “I think we’ll get Elon there. As soon as I can turn Elon Musk from a techno-futilist to a populist nationalist, we’ll start making real progress.”
